Hi all,
while i'm stuck here at work on Friday night. which is the last place i wanna be on Friday night. I wanna share something what i got from Friday khutbah for today. Todays khutbah make me think what smoker think about smoking. The topic of the khutbah for today is to tell people that smoking is HARAM for muslim. The reason of being HARAM is because of the fact that smoking is waste of money and can bring harm to the smoker. I bet all human being in this world know this fact. But, i really need to know why people still smoking. Cigarette consists of almost 40 identified chemical items that can cause cancer. This is fact. Almost 10000 people in Malaysia died cause by cigarette.
Fact Sheet:
  • Smoking is the single largest preventable cause of premature death and disability.
  • Every year, 350,000 Americans die prematurely from diseases caused by cigarette smoking -- such as lung cancer, emphysema, and coronary heart disease.
  • Nicotine addiction is the "most widespread example of drug dependence in our country,"
  • Three-quarters of the adults who currently smoke started their habit before the age of 21; teenage years are critical ones in the habituation of cigarette smokers.
  • Nine out of ten smokers say they want to quit.
  • Smokers who have a heart attack have less chance for survival than a person who does not smoke. And by continuing to smoke after a heart attack, the person's chance for a second attack increases.
  • billion in lost productivity due to excess morbidity and mortality.
  • Smoking is a major risk factor for peripheral vascular disease. This disease is a narrowing of blood vessels that carry blood to the leg and arm muscles. If a blood clot blocks an already narrowed artery, then the result could be the damage or even the loss of an arm or leg.
There is no one good thing about cigarette. Why still need to smoking. Stop smoking before it too late.
